There seems to be uneasy "feelings" about something happening on 3.3.13.

Television is making the most of the date, starting The Bible and The Viking on the 3rd of March 2013.

The Storm is Coming.

Mayhem Clothing established on 3.3.13:

It also appears that in a Lectionary Reading for the Third Sunday of Lent (March 3, 2013), reasons are given for pause to the religious:

It would seem appropriate during Lent that Holy Scripture would issue some warnings to us. In effect, that is what occurs throughout the readings for this Third Sunday of Lent. Each reading contains a caution to us, or a strong suggestion.The first reading from the Book of Exodus, is a story with which most of us are very familiar — Moses and the Burning Bush....St. Paul does not mince words in his letter to the Corinthians. Paul makes reference to the difficulties experienced by the Israelites. He states that “God was not pleased with most of them.” To make it absolutely clear, Paul continues that “These things happened as examples for us.” For more, see the Source.

In Skyfall scene where James Bond and M first reach Scotland (shown here), the following exchange occurs, as noted:

M: Orphans make the best recruits.

Bond: There's a storm coming.

Skyfall, 2012

Fifty years ago, on March 3, 1963, the country and western singer Patsy Cline gave her last performance. She was suppose to fly back home the day after, but was grounded by fog. When she finally did leave on March 5, she never reached home. She and others in her plane were killed in a crash.

A few things that have happened on past March 3rds, with a bit of a concentration on tragedies from the heavens, include,

1915 – NACA, the predecessor of NASA, is founded.

1942 – World War II: Ten Japanese warplanes raid the town of Broome, Western Australia, killing more than 100 people.

1943 – World War II: In London, England, 173 people are killed in a crush while trying to enter an air-raid shelter at Bethnal Green tube station.

1945 – World War II: The RAF accidentally bombs the Bezuidenhout neighborhood in The Hague, Netherlands, killing 511 people.

Is a sense of foreboding, that a "storm is coming," and the past "coincidences" of heavenly evil have anything to do with the reality of events that will take place on 3.3.13?

Meanwhile, later in the month, 3.13.13 is the 17th anniversary of a major mass shooting.

13 March 1996 – Dunblane Massacre in Dunblane, Scotland, 16 Primary School children and 1 teacher are shot dead by the shooter, Thomas Watt Hamilton, who then died by suicide. I wrote about a famous survivor of this "massacre" here.
